Close Shave
5The daddy of all razors

Superb
5I am old enough to remember the days before disposable and multi-blade razors. Somewhere along the line I went astray and experimented with modern designs and settled on Sensor Excel. I used these for ages, believing they were as good as it gets. Then I ordered one of these, on impulse, and have rediscovered decent shaving, which is now quicker, easier and closer. What used to be a chore is now a pleasure. Do yourself a favour and try this excellent product.

Don't listen to the naysayer's!!!
5I must admit I bought this razor because I was seduced by the idea of using a 'real' razor and shaving brush. That said it's THE best grooming product I've ever bought. It's such a close shave, my skin looks so much better for it! I don't understand all the comments about nicks and cuts, I used it on the closest setting (by accident) from the first shave and didn't get nicked for three days - and then because I was rushing like mad! It certainly is a razor that you have to respect, if you want a quick whip around razor look elsewhere. Use some oil, a decent brush and soap/cream and take the time to enjoy the experience, invest some time in yourself - you're worth it!

Superb
5Takes a few shaves to get it right but I find it much better than other shaving methods I have tried.

Brilliant
5I shave my head with this. with other razors I used to get in-growing hairs at the base of my neck, with this I haven't had a single one, by far the best shave I've ever had and the sound as you shave is amazing. Prep is important though as people have pointed out, so get a good brush and some good shaving cream and read up on how to do a correct wet shave. I've had no trouble with this razor (apart from cutting the top of my thumb off when picking it up, which I guess has made me shave very carefully ever since) treat it with respect and you won't cut your face to bits. take your time, don't scrape (the weight of the razor is enough pressure) and you'll be fine. Wish I'd got one ages ago

excellent value
5Although this may seem expensive for what it is, it provides a very tactile experience (due in no small part to its weight) an excellent shave and in the long run will save you money as the blades last twice as long as the double or triple heads and cost less than half as much.

Excellent shave
5This was quite a big step for me. I am only 24 and have used standard safety razors to date. Having recently gone to a cut throat shaving demonstration and was told this was the way to go, I thought I would give it a go. I already use Trumpers rose shave cream which works very well with this. If you take your time, after a hot bath or shower you won't be disappointed, I promise you. The shave makes your skin look super smooth and acts as a brilliant exfoliator. I can't see why people are so negative about cutting their face. I have used this with care for a couple of weeks now and haven't cut myself once.The key to this really is to enjoy it and take it slowly until you get used to it and aside from the practicle benefits, it looks and feels like a proper piece of kit.

Took some practice, but great shave.
5This beast weighs a ton, but looks beautiful. After about a week of practice, I managed to have a great shave without cutting myself. It does have a big head which can get in the way, but I've not had a problem with it. The razor gives me a really close shave with only one pass. It has also helped clear up my ingrown hairs. Am finding it much better than my Mach 3. Thank you Merkur.

Time to banish the mach 3 to the pedal bin!
5Having been sucker'd into buying every new Gillette razor that comes out on the market and paying through the nose for the blades, I thought I would give this a try after reading the reviews. I can't believe I never tried this years ago!! A great shave from a quality product. Minus the normal "face on fire" and "razor burn" effects I got from other razors! Used with Molton Brown Hydrator this is hard to beat. Price wise - It will pay for itself within a few months given the cost of mach blades. Just goes to show the old ways are still sometimes the best!!
